NEWSREEL: Merkel causes additional Greek budget cuts

Burning Love

Mrs Angela
Merkel, the German Kanzler, has arrived in Athens for a state visit to
Germany’s EU partner and NATO ally Greece. She comes as only one more
representative of the Peace and Prosperity which the European Union, as is well-known,
brings to all its member states.

Roughly 6,500
policemen and special force body guards have been concentrated in Athens so as
to protect Frau Merkel from the burning love which the Greek people feel
towards her.

The Troika of
IMF, EU en European Central Bank has declared that additional cuts in social
spending of approximately a quarter of a billion Euros will be necessary so as
to pay for the security measures required for Frau Merkel’s visit.

The spokesman
for the Kanzlerambt in Berlin refused to comment, except to say that this was
the lesser evil. ’70 years ago we brought our own body guards,’ he elucidated. ‘Das war aber kein grosser Erfolg.’
